Frequently Asked Questions About the SafeGuard Anti-Ligature Range

 

What is anti-ligature?

Starting with the definition of a ligature, it is something used for binding, in a medical setting it would refer to tying a blood vessel to stop the flow of blood for example. In our context sadly a ligature is used to describe someone using something as a tie or binding for the purposes of self-harm. This could be an earphone cord, belt, shoelaces, or clothing etc.

An anti-ligature product is carefully designed to help prevent a ligature (something that is used to bind or tie) from being attached to it to help keep people safe from self-harm.

 

What is anti-ligature washroom equipment?

An anti-ligature washroom dispenser is specifically designed to reduce the possibility of attaching something to create a binding. Safety is the primary concern when designing such a product but so too are the aesthetics. It is important to design a product that enhances the environment and impacts positively on the user’s experience of the washroom.

 
Why is it important to have anti-ligature washroom equipment in facilities used by vulnerable people?
